Application and Extension of Numerical Methods in Heating Pipeline
by Qian XuThis book is a summary of the author's pioneering work on the theory of heating pipelines and its application expansion over the years, trying to establish a complete logical system from the basic theory of pipelines to the application of heating pipelines to the innovation and expansion of large-diameter energy transmission pipelines. These esoteric fundamental theories are linked to practical applications, and numerical simulations are used to help readers understand the problems faced by pipelines in engineering practice. The book consists of four chapters, the first chapter describes the basic concepts of district heating system, related standards, development history, facing problems and future prospects, while for the basic characteristics of district heating pipe network installation and laying methods made an introduction; followed by the second chapter summarizes and organizes the pipeline safety research of fluid-solid heat, elastic-plasticity and other basic theories, as well as heating pipeline thermal insulation system heat loss and the economic evaluation of theory and so on. Based on the basic theory of pipeline, the third and fourth chapters introduce several typical pipeline application cases in detail, and each case includes modelling, solving, and result analysis, which can provide readers with technical references and idea guidelines in the field of pipeline research. The third chapter of the different structures of the heating pipeline from the safety and economic aspects of a detailed numerical study; the fourth chapter in the heating pipeline on the basis of energy transportation pipeline, transportation medium from the original hot water, hot steam to the oil and gas, specifically introduced various types of large-diameter energy transportation pipeline under the action of different loads of the dynamic response characteristics. It has important theoretical significance for enriching and developing the basic theory of pipeline and the expansion of all kinds of pipeline applications, and at the same time, it provides technical guidance for the safe, stable, economic and efficient operation of all kinds of long-distance pipelines, such as heating pipelines and energy transmission and transportation pipelines. It helps readers to systematically and comprehensively understand the basic theories of elasticity and plasticity, fluid-solid-thermal coupling, and economic evaluation of pipelines, and at the same time provides readers with new research ideas and technical means from the perspective of scientific research.
Application and Integration of Omics-powered Diagnostics in Clinical and Public Health Microbiology
by Jacob Moran-Gilad Yael YagelVarious “omics” methods have recently revolutionized molecular diagnostics. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) makes it possible to sequence a human genome in just one day. Whole genome sequencing (WGS) greatly improves the ability to investigate the outbreaks of numerous pathogens. Metagenomics helps to analyze the microbiome, which aids greatly in identifying the pathogenesis of infectious diseases. Proteomic-based methods, namely matrix-assisted laser desorption-ionization time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS), have a promising role in identifying myctobacteria and fungi, and predicting antimicrobial resistance. While there are numerous scientific publications on “omics” applications for microbiology, there are relatively few books that review this topic from a clinical diagnostics perspective. This book looks at this field from a holistic viewpoint, instead of limiting by type of “omics” technology, in order to cover the body of knowledge needed for practitioners and academics interested in clinical and public health microbiology. Additionally, it addresses the management, economical, regulatory and operational aspects of integrating these technologies into routine diagnostics.
Application and Multidisciplinary Aspects of Wireless Sensor Networks: Concepts, Integration, and Case Studies (Computer Communications and Networks)
by Veljko Milutinović Srdjan Krco Roman Trobec Liljana Gavrilovska Ivan StojmenovicIt is a general trend in computing that computers are becoming ever smaller and ever more interconnected. Sensor networks - large networks of small, simple devices - are a logical extreme of this trend. Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are attracting an increasing degree of research interest, with a growing number of industrial applications starting to emerge. Two of these applications, personal health monitoring and emergency/disaster recovery, are the focus of the European Commission project ProSense: Promote, Mobilize, Reinforce and Integrate Wireless Sensor Networking Research and Researchers. This hands-on introduction to WSN systems development presents a broad coverage of topics in the field, contributed by researchers involved in the ProSense project. An emphasis is placed on the practical knowledge required for the successful implementation of WSNs. Divided into four parts, the first part covers basic issues of sensors, software, and position-based routing protocols. Part two focuses on multidisciplinary issues, including sensor network integration, mobility aspects, georouting, medical applications, and vehicular sensor networks. The remaining two parts present case studies and further applications. Topics and features: presents a broad overview of WSN technology, including an introduction to sensor and sensing technologies; contains an extensive section on case studies, providing details of the development of a number of WSN applications; discusses frameworks for WSN systems integration, through which WSN technology will become fundamental to the Future Internet concept; investigates real-world applications of WSN systems in medical and vehicular sensor networks; with a Foreword by the Nobel Laurate Professor Martin Perl of Stanford University. Providing holistic coverage of WSN technology, this text/reference will enable graduate students of computer science, electrical engineering and telecommunications to master the specific domains of this emerging area. The book will also be a valuable resource for researchers and practitioners interested in entering the field.

Application for Release from the Dream: Poems
by Tony HoaglandThe eagerly awaited, brilliant, and engaging new poems by Tony Hoagland, author of What Narcissism Means to Me The parade for the slain police officergoes past the bakeryand the smell of fresh breadmakes the mourners salivate against their will.—from "Note to Reality"Are we corrupt or innocent, fragmented or whole? Are responsibility and freedom irreconcilable? Do we value memory or succumb to our forgetfulness? Application for Release from the Dream, Tony Hoagland's fifth collection of poems, pursues these questions with the hobnailed abandon of one who needs to know how a citizen of twenty-first-century America can stay human. With whiplash nerve and tender curiosity, Hoagland both surveys the damage and finds the wonder that makes living worthwhile. Mirthful, fearless, and precise, these poems are full of judgment and mercy.
Application-Inspired Linear Algebra (Springer Undergraduate Texts in Mathematics and Technology)
by Heather A. Moon Thomas J. Asaki Marie A. SnipesThis textbook invites students to discover abstract ideas in linear algebra within the context of applications. Diffusion welding and radiography, the two central applications, are introduced early on and used throughout to frame the practical uses of important linear algebra concepts. Students will learn these methods through explorations, which involve making conjectures and answering open-ended questions. By approaching the subject in this way, new avenues for learning the material emerge: For example, vector spaces are introduced early as the appropriate setting for the applied problems covered; and an alternative, determinant-free method for computing eigenvalues is also illustrated. In addition to the two main applications, the authors also describe possible pathways to other applications, which fall into three main areas: Data and image analysis (including machine learning); dynamical modeling; and optimization and optimal design. Several appendices are included as well, one of which offers an insightful walkthrough of proof techniques. Instructors will also find an outline for how to use the book in a course. Additional resources can be accessed on the authors’ website, including code, data sets, and other helpful material. Application-Inspired Linear Algebra will motivate and immerse undergraduate students taking a first course in linear algebra, and will provide instructors with an indispensable, application-first approach.
